Technip has announced that its subsidiaries have won contracts from Eni for the supply of umbilicals for a block offshore Angola
Technip’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Technip Umbilicals and Angoflex have been awarded a contract by Eni to supply umbilicals to the Block 15/06 East Hub Development which is located offshore Angola. The contract covers project management and manufacture of about 15 kms of dynamic and static steel tube umbilicals.
Technip Umbilicals facility in Lobito, Angola, with support from Technip Umbilicals in Newcastle, UK, will manufacture the umbilicals that are scheduled to be completed in the second half of 2016.
Sarah Cridland, managing director of Technip Umbilicals, said, “This award of Block 15/06 East Hub Development is a recognition of the quality and performance of the umbilicals provided by Technip. We are proud to be awarded this contract and will utilise our expertise across multiple Technip Umbilicals sites while strengthening our relationship with Eni.”
Reinforcing Technip’s relationship with ENI, this new contract follows another project awarded to Technip last year for the fabrication and installation of flexible and rigid pipelines at Block 15/06.
This field is located approx. 350 kms north of Luanda, at water depths of 450-600 meters. The block is operated by Eni which holds 35 per cent interest in it.
